The Gals From Triple Base



The gals from Triple Base Gallery in San Francisco. They were awesome neighbors. The gal on top is Dena and the gal on the bottom is Joyce. They were the ones that told me Oliver the Tarot Card Reader started the gallery. http://www.basebasebase.com/

Tenemarie and I


Tenemarie is on the housekeeping staff at AQUA Hotel and she rocks. She called me her baby. She has a "just say yes" approach and made the week great at the hotel.

My new UK buds


These are great folks from London England. Monica is the gallery owner and Adam is one of her artists. I had some great conversations with Monica...from art to Tony Blair (P.S. Moncia does not approve of this photo!) .

Friday's Crowd


Friday was an interesting day at AQUA. It seemed like there were a ton of students and teachers. In this photo I am chatting with a teacher and she was enthralled with Nany's work and Amy's work. She did not buy though but she very much enjoyed obserivng the technical prowess of Sam's artists.

Hair Play




Shoes


When you come to an art fair you need to be prepared to look the coolest and hippest possible. Therefore shoes are an important consideration. Needless to say we came very prepared!

Lou and I


This guy is the man at the AQUA HOTEL. He is on anything you ask for and has made is easier to be here!

Amy Ross Visits


One of Sam's artists Amy Ross is in town for the fairs and she visited Thursday night. This photo is on front of her work. She is technically and conceptually so talented. She is also a really sweet gal. Lives and works in Boston, MA.
